Hello “Smart-ones”
I opened up my kite and found one dark spots that look like mold on the material. Does anyone have any good ideas for what I can and can not use for cleaning products that will not harm the kite material? I tried Windex but that didn’t work. Mold cleaner?? I don’t want to use something that will eat a hole in the kite material.

Thanks for all the replies, it’s a cabrinha kite and I also emailed them to see what they would use to clean the mold off.. Again thanks to all you for your help. I will let you all know what cabrinha answer is, and what product works the best on kite material..
See you on the water!!

Hello
I Received an email from the Cabrinha support team and they said use a simple solution of mild soap and water is fine to use on the kite.
So I think that they are telling me that I can use Mr Bubble, the soap we all used when we were a kid?
Thanks lakawa for giving me more info on what to try for cleaning my kite. I’m going to try using the IOSSO Mold & Mildew cleaner.
Thanks again for all your input.

my kite had some mildew on it when I pulled it out in January, due to storage slightly wet since Nov. I flew it in 10 degree weather for a day and never saw a trace of the shit on it since. I imagine a salt bath and then a day in the sun would pretty much kill anything off.
